The single-player action RPG by Square Enix has you playing as Valkyrie, Odin’s protege.
You’ll need a good set of weapons to get you through.
The good news is that the game generously provides you with a varied arsenal of weapons.
you’re free to access these weapons as you make progress.
However, it would help if you had weapons with good stats to defeat the invincible beasts.
We’ve sampled the top-tier weapons that will deal massive damage and lead you to victory.
Here are the five best weapons inValkyrie Elysium.
Sidgrani
If you’re looking to deal more magical damage than physical damage, this is your weapon.
The Sidgrani stands out for being an exceptional mace that can shoot magic projectiles.
This means you’re free to launch an attack against an antagonist from a distance.
Moreover, the shots increase as you level up your magic offense stats.
However, be wary; the projectiles may do minor damage, as you intend.
Furthermore, its range is only partially top-tier.
The magic bolts take time to charge.
Hence, they can be slow to strike.
It’s more suitable when dealing with a weakened enemy for a satisfactory final kill.
Aside from being slow to strike, the rod requires two hands to wield since it’s pretty heavy.
Above all, aesthetically speaking, the Sidgrani is good to equip.
However, its power doesn’t match the other weapons on this list.
To obtain it, it’s crucial that you complete the side quest, Midgardian Studies (2).
Baleygr
The Balegyr is a spear that compares to Odin’s legendary Gungnir.
The weapon allows you to launch attacks at your enemy quickly.
Moreover, it offers an impeccable range that is significantly better than the Sidgrani.
However, a fast enemy can easily dodge your attacks.
Furthermore, the weapon is helpful during the game’s early episodes.
Don’t get me wrong.
The baleygr still holds significant solid stats.
Beyond that, it is a fantastic weapon to equip and an excellent choice for fighting hordes of enemies.
Also, you might upgrade its stats for better damage output.
However, the upgrades are short-lived.
As you’ll see below, the game makes up for this shortfall with more powerful weapons.
you’re free to access this weapon in Chapter 3 at the main square with three soul trees.
Bolverkr
The Bolvekr is one of the weapons you access early in the game.
Players witness what this rapier can do and how helpful it is during the early stages.
For instance, the Bolverkr launches faster attacks compared to its counterpart.
However, each launch is weak and inflicts less damage.
Moreover, it doesn’t provide a good range.
As with other weapons, the bolverkr features upgrades as you progress in the game.
The buffed stats deliver more damage, but not enough to beat the heavily armored foes.
It’s best to use something other than this weapon against enemies with a high HP.
It’ll take a ton of attacks to strike them down.
Furthermore, the weapon comes in handy when dealing with enemies who see it as kryptonite.
Bolverkr is available as a reward after completing Chapter 1.
Alfodr
Afrodr is a weapon with humble beginnings.
It’s the weapon you receive at the game’s start and probably have with you until the end.
It’s a unique sword that gets better with time.
Every upgrade improves its stats better than any other weapon in the game.
Not every day do you see first weapons becoming the day’s heroes.
This is not the case withValkyrie Elysium.
Right off the bat, Alfodr holds impressive stats and is very versatile.
It’s a sword with an exceptional balance of strength and speed.
Furthermore, the upgrades take these features a notch higher.
Equipping it with the runes transforms the sword into an invincible blade.
Making it a suitable option for taking down enemies and challenging bosses.
Moreover, unlike the weapons you get from DLC, Alfodr isn’t blemished by elemental weakness.
This means that regardless of the damage you take, your sword still holds immense power.
You receive this weapon as a reward for completing Chapter 4.
Herteitr
What is double-bladed and deals with an enormous amount of physical carnage?
You guessed it; it’s the Herteitr, our top pick for the best weapons in Valkyrie Elysium.
Hertreir has an impressive streak of power and speed compared to the Baleygr.
you’re able to equip two weapons simultaneously, thanks to the game’s armory system.
Your best bet at becoming a killing machine is combining Herteitr with Alfodr or Baleygr.
you could switch it for the Alfodr when you need more speed instead of range.
Wielding this spear guarantees ultimate victory and presents a chance for you to make the all-father proud.
Equipping it with the Arts Regeneration rune gives you access to the Divine Arts.
you’re able to twirl and swirl the spear for a sublime and magical kill.
Moreover, this upgrade gives you a better chance of receiving the S-Rank.
